Manny, in many ways the audition I took in July was my first, and I can't believe how many parallels there are between your audition in Dallas and my audition in July for the Naval Academy band. Of course you were undoubtedly playing at a higher level than I was, but still, (and please don't take this the wrong way) it makes me feel good to know that even pros have bad days from time to time.
Wow!
The best part about your post: it shows that good guys DO finish first!
Thanks for that Manny - it made my night.
